What's the ideal # of big blinds to be "in-game?"

[eqgh5uea]

depends on the attitude of other players at the table, and your style of play for every hand yea yea yea

Thanks. I wish there was a program to tell you how much chips you SHOULD have in accordance to how many plrs are there, play styles, etc,.

I figure in a 2k plr tourney to get to the -50 mark, you should at LEAST have a goal of 20k chips.
